Right on the heels of Microsofts official release announcement of Internet Explorer 7, Mozilla uploads the final build of Firefox 2.0 today. Head on over to the FTP servers to grab yourself a copy.

Users will notice a few usability and interface enhancements, tab improvements, session saver, inline spell checking, as well as a built in anti-phishing “technology” protection.

its good, i like it. feels sleek.. and for the first time ever, it was about to auto install flash, instead of just sending you to the micromedia website and having to manually do it.

Wow...You're right, it does feel sleek...And looks it too...

I think they've just out done Microsoft, yet again...

Yeh i was running beta on Windows before I changed over to Gentoo.

Gentoo currently has 2.0 masked for installation, so I wonder if this has been lifted as of today.

Opera has served me well and I don't really wanna change.

Still made by Mozilla though, so it's all good
